I first read Mody Dick 35 years ago and am finding it a lighter read now than I did then, but I'm only a few hundred pages into it so maybe they really heavy stuff is coming.

I am no fan of Melville; I found Moby Dick heavy going, but rope is
exactly what I expected. That's odd because I heat with wood and the
secondary definition never occurred to me.

Thanks, Ann. I'm re-reading Moby Dick this summer and Melville is always
talking about  "cordage". When I looked it up I found out that coils of
rope and ships riggingw as the primary meaning, with the landlubberish
meaning of chopped wood second. And since the photo is of an extension
cord....

Thanks for looking!

This was really an exercise in trying to get a good development time
to give some very expired film I have on hand a two stop push - but I
like the test image.

Comments welcome!
